A quick share today of the second of my pen and ink over gesso media boards which I have mounted in a deep Ikea frame but reversed it to look more like a shadow box. If you missed the first one you can see it here.
Again I have used a Tando Creative media board .....
.... and black sharpie pen ...
.... with DecoArt media acrylics to give me the light colour wash.
I really like the quirkiess of putting the art in back to front , it really works for me.
Thanks for stopping by, have a wonderful week.
